[bird hooting] >> can you see them, bob? >> and then we saw it. what happened next was

otherworldly. [bird hooting] >> welcome to 60 minutes on cnbc. i'm morley safer. in this edition, we take a global adventure with stops in mozambique to see greg carr's efforts to restore gorongosa, gorongosa national park, and in italy, to meet wine royalty the antinori family. we also journey to the foja mountains in indonesia to get a glimpse of wildlife that doesn't exist anywhere else on earth. we begin with american philanthropist greg carr. he's committed himself and his fortune to helping one of the poorest nations on earth, mozambique in east africa. as scott pelley first reported in 2008, greg carr thinks he's found something special in a wildlife park that could be mozambique's salvation.

>> greg carr wanted our first experience of gorongosa to be just like his was in 2004: a helicopter ride to see the park's vast size and breathtaking diversity. >> when we flew over this, i said, "this is it," you know, because, i mean, it's beautiful. it's magnificent. >> it's almost 1,500 square miles of african wilderness: lakes, plains, even a rain forest. gorongosa spreads across the heart of mozambique, a country that lies along the east coast of southern africa on the indian ocean. >> oh, wow. >> carr can't fly over it without sounding like a kid. >> okay, look at this. this is great. >> here he goes. we saw hippo, antelope, and elephant, but not many. gorongosa is a tragedy in two parts, with the loss of its animals and the suffering of its people, whose lives haven't improved much in a few hundred years. i wonder why you chose this place. of all the places in the world,

why here? >> gorongosa was, most people consider, the most popular national park in all of africa, and the most density of animals, the most beauty, the most diversity of ecosystems. so you have one of the most beautiful places in the world, and you also have perhaps the worst poverty of anywhere in the world, side by side. >> to carr, that's an opportunity, and it's the same kind of business sense that made him a fortune. right out of harvard, in the mid-'80s, he and a partner developed a hot new product called voicemail. in 1998, he cashed out with $200 million and devoted himself to bringing entrepreneurship to charity. >> so the idea is, take the beauty of the park and use that to do human development. attract the tourists who will spend the money to create the jobs and lift everybody out of poverty. for an entrepreneur, it's kind of a compelling opportunity to, you know, one plus one equals ten. >> carr's nonprofit foundation

has an agreement with the mozambican government to develop gorongosa park until 2028. he's putting in $40 million of his own money to try to bring gorongosa back to what it used to be. this was gorongosa in a film from the 1960s, before it was engulfed by war. royalty and hollywood stars came on safari. there were hundreds of lion here. in fact, so many that a pride even took over this building. but that was then. the lion aren't coming up these steps anymore. back when the film was made, there were 500 lion in gorongosa, 2,000 elephants, 14,000 cape buffalo, and 3,000 hippos. it took years of war and poaching to get it done, but by the end, almost all of those animals were gone.

in one of the world's greatest wildlife habitats, the animals were forced from house and home. first it was mozambique's war for independence from portugal, then a civil war that lasted 16 years. it turned gorongosa into a battlefield and a slaughterhouse. >> when we came back, the animals were gone. >> baldeu chande was a ranger at the park before the civil war ravaged gorongosa. tell me about the difference between what you saw before the war and the day that you came back. >> i couldn't believe, because i went out, you know, inside the park, you know, to look for the animals. i was excited, and i wanted to see the animals like i used to see before. and unfortunately, for the first two or three weeks, i couldn't see a single animal. it was just bush, bush, bush, and no animals. >> the people fared little better. when the war ended in 1992,

mozambique was the poorest country on earth. 900,000 had been killed. millions were run from their homes. then the hiv/aids epidemic hit. today most people live in villages like this one, farming mostly hand to mouth. >> as you can see, it's one of the poorest. >> mateus mutemba works with greg carr. you know, i noticed-- hey, my man-- a lot of the children, their bellies are distended. >> yes. >> they're obviously not well. >> yes, in most cases, they are not even aware they are sick. >> part of it's because folks like these can't get anywhere close to a nurse or a doctor. >> the clinics are very far away. the nearest is 19 kilometers from here, so when they are sick, they stay at home, pray, and hope that they will get better. [rooster crowing] >> now compare that village we just saw with the future that

greg carr sees. these are people from another village called vinho. it's rush hour on the pungue river, which runs along gorongosa park. a couple of hundred of these villagers were working for the park as rangers, cooks, and the like. you know, this is venice with crocodiles, isn't it? we made the reverse commute. carr wanted us to see the difference in vinho village. you know, i have to think that there was a temptation for a big-deal i.t. guy from america to come in and say, "okay, we're gonna put the school here; we're gonna put the clinic there; we're gonna put a road here, and this is where the wells are gonna go," right? that's what you wanted to do, wasn't it? >> if you come here with an american ceo mentality-- "we're gonna make a plan; we're gonna do it; let's go"-- and give out orders, that is the wrong way to do development in a rural like this, because this is their village, and they need to make those choices. >> when carr first visited in 2004, school met underneath that magnificent baobab tree. >> that was the school, and they

had a blackboard under it. [singing] >> after the villagers told him they wanted a new school, carr spent $100,000 helping them to build it. [applause] and just across the road, there was a line waiting at the new clinic they asked for, built for $200,000. >> mozambique needs 750 of these rural clinics to serve the people who now don't have any health care at all. >> and how many of these have you built? >> this is our first one. >> this is number one. >> this is it-- >> out of how many, do you imagine? >> we want to build 25. [ticking] >> coming up: tracking gorongosa's elephants. >> by doing this, we'll be able to make thousands of other elephants safe. >> it takes her just a little more than two minutes to stagger back to her feet. wow. oh, boy. >> that's ahead, when 60 minutes on cnbc returns.

[ticking] >> american philanthropist greg carr is giving millions of dollars to gorongosa national park in mozambique to restore it to its former glory. he believes that revitalizing the park will bring tourism back to this impoverished area and create jobs in the villages nearby. one of those villages is vinho, where, as scott pelley reported, carr has given money to build a clinic and a school. [people singing and clapping] >> among the villagers, carr is treated like a rock star. [cheering] >> this woman told him she could never go to school before, but now, thanks to an adult education class, she can write her name. >> [speaking foreign language] [cheers and applause]

>> [speaking foreign language] >> all: [cheering response] >> [speaking foreign language] >> all: [cheering response] >> [laughing] okay. >> but even with all the wealth that the 200 jobs, a clinic, and a school have brought to vinho, carr has still got to convince the villagers to help gorongosa succeed. we need to decrease the amount of poaching of animals in the park, because tourists want to see animals. >> tourists are returning to gorongosa in small numbers, but to attract more, carr knows that he needs animals, a lot more animals. >> there's some baboons right over there. >> oh, yeah, big guy. >> he does have one thing in abundance. watch the crocodiles as we skimmed over the lake.

the problem is, big game are scarce, so carr is trucking in new animals from all over africa. what have you reintroduced so far? >> last year, we did wildebeest. and they've already started having calves, so that's exciting. we're doing hyena this year. we're doing some more hippo this year. i really want zebra, but i can't get them right now because i need to get zebra from zimbabwe, and the political problems in that country, you just can't get something out of there. >> carr's brought in scientists to make sure he's importing the right species and to better understand the animals he already has. they've been tracking this gorongosa elephant herd with radio collars, and we went on a mission to replace a collar that had a dead battery. dr. cobus raath has come from south africa to help in the operation. first he prepares the tranquilizer.

and how long will the elephant be out? >> we'll have 40 minutes, at least, before she starts to wake up. >> is that all you need? >> yeah, in a normal operation, that's more than enough to change a collar. >> raath flies in and fires the dart. then it's a matter of waiting until the dose knocks her out. while they wait, they drive off her calf so they won't have to knock it out too. the ground crew moves in, taking off the old collar, getting blood samples. understanding the health of these elephants will help ensure the success of a herd that carr is bringing in from south africa. >> by doing this, we'll be able to make thousands of other elephants safe. >> they put a blindfold over her eyes to help keep her calm, and they're pouring water on her to keep her cool. the new radio collar is going on around her neck. you can tell that she's doing reasonably well because you can feel her breath coming out of

her trunk, very strong, very hot, breathing very well. in just a moment, they'll inject her with an antidote and, if everything goes as planned, she should wake right up. >> when i tell you to go, you just go. run to the car. >> we go. it takes her just a little more than two minutes to stagger back to her feet. wow. oh, boy. once the animals are back in abundance, carr expects big tour operators and hotels to invest in gorongosa, throwing off enough cash to bring in more schools, clinics, roads, and electricity. you know, one of the most interesting animals in the park, for my money, is you. >> [laughs] >> and i wonder what it was about being in the technology business and making $200 million at it that you found ultimately so unfulfilling. >> actually, it was fun and

exciting, but i wanted to give back. but, you know, this project has done a lot more for me than i'll ever do for it. coming to africa, spending time here, learning from their culture, which is rich and beautiful, is a blessing. [chanting and singing] >> he intends to double the size of the park and leave it completely self-sustaining, no longer a charity but an economic engine attracting investments, creating jobs, and, in the end, standing on its own without greg carr.heering] >> since our report first aired, the gorongosa national park has nearly doubled in size and added many new animals. and, yes, that does include zebras. in 2011, the park drew 7,500 visitors, and carr believes that by 2015,

that will increase to 15,000. as for the health program, carr says it's going strong. he's decided to provide mobile vans instead of clinics and is partnering with new york's mount sinai hospital to train local women as community health workers.

[ticking] the antinori family of italy has been in the same line of work for six centuries. all the more remarkable since a study found that only 15% of family businesses survive past the second generation. the antinoris make wine. and as we first reported in the fall of 2008, the family story reads like something a wine critic might write about their product: complex, stylish, sophisticated, with a bouquet both elegant and earthy. it's harvest time in the great vineyards of italy, none greater than the 5,000 acres farmed by the antinori family. until recently, italian business, especially the wine business, was pretty much for men only.

>> girls, normally, in families like ours, ended up to be married, possibly happily, and that's it. no need to work. but albiera antinori and her two sisters are the first women in 26 generations to play a major role in the family enterprise. allegra antinori: >> i feel part of the land, you know? i think i'm owned by that land. it's something very, very strong. >> from the fields to the cellars, you'll find the antinori women at work, hoping, as vintners have for centuries, that this year, the balance of sun, soil, and rain will produce a vintage for the ages. allesia antinori. people use these wonderful words to describe taste. there's personality. what else? >> the elegance. the wine has to be elegant. and so you say, how do you describe elegance? you can't. it's like an elegant woman. how you describe her? it's personal.

>> you know it when you see it. >> exactly, exactly. their domain stretches from the legendary vineyards of tuscany and umbria to their property in california's napa valley. antinori is, perhaps, the oldest family business on earth. >> the first document which we have which proves that an ancestor of mine was involved in the wine production dates back to 1385. the patriarch and still the godfather is piero antinori. he bares the noble title of marchese. he works behind an antique desk that dates back to the renaissance. >> when we have to take some decision regarding the family, we have them here. and my father used to do the same thing. >> and in his birthplace, florence, the city that gave birth to the renaissance, that flowering of art, science, and the good life, he leads a visitor to a small window to the past. it looks like a confessional.

[laughing] hundreds of years ago, an antinori cellar master sat waiting for customers to knock. >> the cellar master would pass a bottle of chianti wine and would receive the money back. this has been in operation until a couple of centuries ago. >> recent history by your standards. >> yes it is. >> for over 625 years, various antinori have kept the business going despite war, plague, political intrigue, and the shifting tastes of consumers. the family tree shows a bumper crop of antinori who made their mark, not just in wine but in every aspect of italian life. >> in business, in politics, in church. >> so the family always made sure back then that all bets were covered, correct? >> [laughs] i think it was a bit the concept, yes.

>> there were poets and priests, rogues and rascals. in 1576, francesco de'medici, the grand duke of tuscany, had one antinori strangled for his undue attentions to bianca, the duke's wife. in the 1700s, another antinori cultivated pope clement xii as an important customer. the pontiff, who commissioned the building of rome's trevi fountain, decided to throw a few coins the antinoris' way. >> we have some correspondence saying that the pope used to like very much the wines of our family, and he wanted to order more. >> pretty good recommendation, correct? especially in the 18th century. >> yes, no doubt. >> but the family history lining the shelves of the marchese's office says precious little about the wives and daughters in the antinori family tree, a fact not lost on albiera, allegra,

and allesia. are there any interesting women in those 26 generations? >> i'm sure there are some women, but women in history, in the past time, even if, unless they were special, they were not considered to be mentioned. >> it's true, because when i went to agricultural university in northern italy in milan, we were two women, and the rest were all men. very lucky. >> for six centuries, command of the antinori empire was passed from father to son, but with no male heir, the marchese, some years ago, sold a major stake in the business to whitbread, a british company whose fortune was based on beer-making. >> it was the period when i didn't know exactly if my daughters would be interested or not to be involved in the business. and so for me, that was a way to guarantee a continuity also to the company. >> but the partnership produced

mainly grapes of wrath. it was a vintage clash between the foaming suds of quick profits, and piero insisting he'd sell no wine before its time. this marriage of inconvenience ended when piero bought back the shares, keeping antinori all in the family. >> i think he saw us interested and said, "why not? what's wrong with girls?" and so he took his chance, expecting his daughters to fall in love with the business. >> and that they did. now all three travel the countryside and the world helping to grow, promote, and market antinori wines. and though the business now involves spreadsheets and science, the basics still come, as they have for centuries, from down on the farm. even with all this tradition and history and everything else, the family still regards itself as farmers, yes? >> yes, absolutely.

this is our origin. still now in modern times, we are basically farmers. >> we appreciate the nature and the countryside more than the glamorous city life. >> you're three country bumpkins. >> all: yes.

for the first time in 26 generations, women are playing a significant role in antinori wines. the women are the three daughters of the family patriarch, marchese piero antinori. though they may have all grown up in the italian countryside and claim to be country bumpkins, that doesn't stop them from enjoying the good life, as we found out when we joined them for lunch. >> salud. >> cheers. >> elegance is the rule at palazzo antinori, the family home in florence. since the family's wines must be sampled often to ensure quality control, every lunch at the palazzo is a kind of business lunch. the marchese, his wife, francesca, their daughters and sons-in-law, and the grandchildren all may have a say. >> any family arguments at this table? >> [laughs] >> come on, secrets. i want secrets revealed here. >> yes, sometimes we start with

an argument, but after three or four glasses of wine... >> everything disappears. >> this palazzo has been in the family since 1506, both the headquarters of the business and also the residence of the family. >> when an antinori wishes to seek solace or a place for quiet contemplation or even a place to confess his earthly sins, it's hardly difficult. just leave the palazzo antinori and, traffic notwithstanding, cross the piazza antinori, and within minutes, arrive at the capella antinori, the antinori family chapel, where they might visit the tomb of alessandro antinori, one of the founders of the dynasty, and perhaps a nod to any number of antinoris buried beneath the chapel floor. if wealth and history can buy you one lasting pleasure, it is

convenience. marchese antinori, for instance, commutes by air to his most famous vineyard, tignanello, in the tuscan countryside south of florence. here, the family developed the red wines for which they're famous. at his villa here, this is the view the marchese wakes up to every morning. >> we have the vineyards and the landscape. >> but as the experience with the british partners showed, it's no business for the impatient or for those who have a taste for the quick buck. ten years can pass from the time a new vine is planted until its wine comes to market. >> you have to be patient and to wait until the wine is good enough, the vines are old enough to produce a good wine. >> but it's not all dirt and business. there's that other estate, guado al tasso, on the tuscan coast. >> i did my own stable, my own training track in the middle of

the vineyards. [speaking italian] i go riding there every morning. it's beautiful. i love it. >> it's a very good life you described. are you spoiled? >> yes, i am very spoiled, but i think we appreciate what we have. >> and they are constantly reminded that in this line of work, nature always has the last word. the antinori found the 2002 crop wasn't up to par and didn't bother bottling most of it. >> you cannot force things. you cannot force nature. if you have a bad vintage, tough luck. we can wake it up for a second before we put it back to sleep. >> every few months, they check on the progress of their wine, fast asleep in the cellars. [glass clinks] the verdict? let it sleep awhile longer. >> you see, it's still very young, very rough, very--

has to stay in there for a little while. >> another family meal, another bottle of wine or two. every once in a while, someone offers to buy them out, but this farmer and his daughters politely decline on the theory that if family ownership was good enough in 1385, it's good enough today. >> it is really our intention to remain a family business, because we think that this is the best solution for us. >> for at least another 500 years. >> [chuckles] at least. >> and by all accounts, that family business is still going strong. in march 2012, piero antinori attended an event in houston that included an auction for a 9-liter bottle of one of their wines. the wine, a blend of cabernet,

merlot, and cabernet franc, vintage 2007, went for a record-breaking $211,000.

[ticking] it was hard to imagine there were still new frontiers on earth, places untouched by man. so when a group of scientists found such a spot in 2005 on the indonesian side of new guinea and made news with the discovery of dozens of new species, we decided to go. this mountain rain forest, a sort of garden of eden, was about as far from civilization as you can get. but as bob simon first reported in 2007, getting there was half the fun. >> after a 20-hour flight to jakarta, indonesia, followed by a 7-hour plane ride to new guinea, we had concluded the easy part of the trip. we then boarded a single-engine

plane with bruce beehler, the lead scientist from conservation international, which stirred the world with its discoveries in 2005. after an hour in the air, we were looking for a grass runway. we skirted the treetops and touched down. [people singing in native language] we landed right in the middle of a party. the guests of honor: us. >> all: [singing] >> what is going on? >> whoa, that's quite a welcome. >> who are these people? >> these are the papasena people. they seem to like you. >> when the papasena people like you, they dab you with clay. the village of papasena was our jumping-off point for the final leg up to the rain forest the next day. since the villagers owned the land we wanted to visit, we needed their blessing. >> hello mama. >> bruce was looking for one villager in particular, pak timothy, the papasena chief, the man we hoped would serve as the

host for our expedition. >> [speaking foreign language] >> translation: we were good to go. the next morning, we loaded up the helicopter for the 45-minute journey up to the mountain. it's at least a two-week hike from the village, and there are no trails. we were going to a rain forest in what's known as the foja mountains, to the very place where bruce and other scientists had discovered new species. the only place where we could set the helicopter down was a bog, if we could find it amidst the clouds. then suddenly, at 6,000 feet, there it was. we hopped out, said good-bye to the helicopter, and hoped it would come back in ten days, as promised. we were now closed off from the outside world. >> we're about as far away from home as you can get. >> you don't just mean

geographically. >> we're basically at the edge of the earth, as we would know it. there's no sign of human activity. >> there's no footprints. there are no trails. there are no coke cans, no sounds except the sounds of the birds. [birds chirping] >> only a handful of humans are known to have walked this ground. bruce had been here once before. he'd always wondered what might be hidden in this forest, but it took him 24 years of begging before the indonesian government would let him set foot here. to help us set up a camp, we brought a few villagers from papasena. this was it, our home for the next ten days. i see you're already wearing your binoculars. >> i'm looking for new birds or old birds that i saw last time that only live here, no place else on earth except the foja mountains. [whistling] >> in 2005, bruce and his fellow scientists needed only ten minutes to find their first new species, an odd-looking bird.

it didn't take us much longer to spot it. >> you can see these bizarre little waddles hanging down. that seems to be unique. >> a new bird, a new species, needs a new name. what did you come up with? >> well, i've got a wife, and i thought, wouldn't it be nice to name it after her? so i named it after carol. melipotes carolae. it actually has an english name too. that's the wattled smokey honey eater. >> wattled smokey honey eater. >> yeah, it's a mouthful, isn't it? >> bruce was on the march to find what are called birds of paradise. the black sickle bill bird of paradise was of particular interest. the sickle bill has a distinctive call. [bird hooting] the bird is so rare it took bruce 30 years to see his first sickle bill. we were trying to find one in ten days. >> can you see him, bob? he's definitely curious. [bird hooting] he's not far. >> and then we saw one. it was only a glimpse, but it

was long enough to marvel at his extravagant tail. the key to finding the sickle bill, it turns out, was a dead stump. >> that is a very special place. that is the display site of that black sickle bill bird of paradise that we glimpsed. this is the first time i've ever seen a display site. >> really? >> this is where the male does his dance for the female, only on the top of that perch. >> literally does a dance? >> he does a dance, and he completely transforms himself into some otherworldly creature. >> the dance is part of the mating ritual. and it only happens between 5:20 and 5:45 a.m. that's when our cameras were focused on the dead stump every morning, trying to become the first camera crew to film a male sickle bill doing its display for a female. sure enough, one morning an early bird arrived before dawn. [bird hooting] what we saw next, really was otherworldly. the male flashed his yellow mouth, hoping to lure a female. one took the bait.

the male transformed himself, a metamorphosis from bird to batman. we don't know if the female was blown away by this display, but we certainly were. >> how could she not be impressed? it's the most fantastic thing i've ever seen. [bird hooting] [ticking] >> coming up: meet the bower bird. >> generally, the females are choosy, and the males are, shall we say, horny. >> that's ahead, when 60 minutes on cnbc returns. [ticking]

[ticking] [bird chirping] >> on the indonesian side of new guinea, we met another character of the rain forest, a male golden-fronted bower bird found only in the foja mountains was sprucing up. he's known as the architect of the forest for good reason. i like to call this the bower bird's tower of love. it looks sort of like a nest, but certainly, it's not a nest. you can hear the male. he's up there making weird sounds. he's created this love bower that he builds, and it's artful.

he adds different colors. >> the bower bird decorates his tower with fruits, snails, anything he thinks will make it stand out. and all this is to attract the girls. >> yes. basically, this is his playboy pad, all right? he's a single male here, polygamous. >> he's more discriminating in how he builds his tower than he is in the females he mates with. >> that's what the evolutionary biologists say, yes. generally, the females are choosy, and the males are, shall we say, horny. >> this tower, three feet tall, consists of about 500 sticks, all put together by this one male bower bird. surrounding it is a mossy runway where he will dance for the female as part of his display. it had never been filmed before, so our cameraman chris everson had a hiding spot built for him near the tower. once the camera was safely tucked away behind camouflage, it was a matter of waiting and hoping. we weren't disappointed.

first a female dropped in to check out the tower. the male arrived bearing fruit in his mouth. he finally got up the nerve to lift his crest and strut his stuff. what some guys won't do... apparently, he'll need work on his routine, because the female left. according to bruce, it may have just been too early in the season. it wasn't just unique birds that we saw; it was a burst of red in a forest of green. >> ah, look at that. i can see the rhododendron over there flowering. this is apparently the largest rhododendron flower in the world. >> oh, yes, it's very sweet. >> oh, it's lovely, absolutely lovely. >> when it rains in a rain forest, everything stops, except bruce, who continues taking notes. and this wasn't even the wet season.

it all helps the foja mountains in its role as species generator. >> the mountain range just happens to be isolated enough, it's high enough, it's wet enough, it's cool enough, to be a place where unique species can evolve. >> there aren't many snakes in this garden of eden. there aren't many mammals either, at least ones known to us. >> watch out here; it's tricky. >> we looked and looked. we battled mud... >> whoa, yikes. >> and mountain. >> it's gonna get worse. this is gonna be slippery here. >> this is the forest primeval. there are no big cats, monkeys, or elephants here, as there are next door on the island of borneo. the large mammals never made it across the water from asia. [bat shrieking] we did find some other interesting creatures. there were bats... >> ooh, look at this guy. >> and rats. >> that is a big rat. >> that's one of the biggest rats in the world. whoo-hoo. >> this one could be a new species, from the big to the small.

>> he likes people. >> this pygmy possum, one of the smallest possums in the world, couldn't get enough camera time. >> yes, he will jump. okay. >> he's just one of many spectacular fruit doves. >> but for the most part, this place is for the birds. like berlepsch's six-wired bird of paradise, so called because of the wires protruding like antennas from the back of its head. it was described to science over 100 years ago then seemed to disappear until bruce beehler and his scientists rediscovered it here in 2005. it's never been found anywhere else. we wanted a better look at it, so bruce played back a recording of its own voice to draw it closer. >> i think we've got their attention. there he is. there he is. >> all a part of the wonder of this little corner of earth. do you think this place has changed much over the years? >> i don't think it has. it's probably basically the way it was 5,000 or 10,000 years ago. >> it's a museum piece, bruce

says, a rare opportunity for scientists to study the earth the way it once was. >> it doesn't have any outside species. it has all the original forms here. no extinction, presumably. so you have, really, some very precious part of the ancient earth that was here before humans began to take over. >> it's the garden of eden before adam and eve, but adam and eve eventually did arrive, and there is fear loggers and poachers may one day take over in the foja mountains. the area is a wildlife sanctuary, but bruce is hoping indonesia will give it more prominence by making it a national park. what happens to this place when you leave? how does it get conserved? >> well, you need to know what you're conserving, right? are there endemic species here? yes, we know there's the golden-fronted bower bird, only found in the foja mountains; this berlepsch's six-wired bird of paradise, only found in the foja mountains. so when you build up a list of remarkable creatures that only
